best of luck for all the applicants.
Just couple of observations :

- do not send photocopies HO doesnt need it And they do return photocopieswith supporting docs.
- make application simple small and to the point with good presentation. Keep it easy for CW.
- HO do consider additional doc and they do receive it . Do send it to sheffield address for Tier1 case.

Took way longer than I anticipated, thought my application was straightforward but just happy to have it over and done with and I can continue my life here. I’d like to thank everyone, most specifically CR001 who has been so patient with me through my constant worries. It’s been an insane journey wrecked with anxiety which I probably wouldn’t have survived without the help and online community on this board. Good luck everyone, be patient and god bless xx
